Another Night of the Dead... what a shame

Rating: 3/10 (14 June 2003)

The website gives you the chance to actually see the first six minutes of the film -- and most people should just stop there.
The audience and I both had more laughs than shocks. When the main character first appears, its something to laugh at. When the cook gives his characteristic grin later on in the movie, its something to laugh at.
If you have seen any of the Living Dead, or for that matter, Resident Evil, you will be supremely disappointed by the "ingenuity" of this film. Lots of people die, they become zombies, they hunt the living. How many movies have to be made about this before people stop paying their $8 to see the same story over and over.
I actually thought that there might be a novel twist in the plot this time, and my one hope is that I can let other people know that you can expect nothing but the same old drivel that we've seen since the Living Dead... for those with discriminating taste, don't bother to waste your time (or your money). This movie will neither scare, surprise, nor impress you.

All of the scares come from cheap gags (cars backfiring, zombies jumping from the background unexpectedly) rather than really addressing the issue.
Without spoiling the ending, its very disappointing and abrupt as well. In many ways it adds a whole new level to ex deus machina.
Your money is best spent staying home and renting a real horror flick.
